The mails between here and Mem.

Mayor Stone requests us to warn
little boys, and men too, that it is un.
lawful for them to fire guns and pis

hope each subscriber will promptly
renew, SO that no more erasures may

Demand for Small Change.

1.-THE demand for small bills and coins, /"
says Philadelphia sub-treasury official,
sis such that we cannot begin to supply
81 and 80 bills as fast as they are called
for, and we are away behind in the matter
Of small change-pennies, five cent pieces,
dimes, quarters and half dollar bits. One
Of the psculiarfties of the day is the new
demand from the south and southwest for
pennies. Heretofore the people in that part
Of the country have had no use for one
cent pieces; they have rather inclined to
sheer at such money; but the great growth
Of liveliness in trade down there seems to
have changed affairs materially. And all
over the country IL would seem as IL this
demand for small currency Is q fair indica-
tion that there II boom in retail business.
That would explain the demand for this
new abundance Of small money, demand
that the public really does not appreciate,
20 great Is it, Chicago Times.

~ At the Cleopatra spring, upon terrace
forty feet In height and covering three
quarters Of an acre, the deposit Is unusually
rapid, and for this reason the spring ID
utilized for the purpose of encrusting
the various articles that arc sold as
curios and souvenirs in the valley. The
spring has temperature of 1854 degrees
at the edge, but In every basin that IL
fed directly by hot spring the tempera-
ture increases rapidly as one approaches
the source, aud the streams that dow
from the basins retain an agreeable
warmth even at . considerable distance
from the main terrace At the Cleo
patra spring bottles are sunk or hung
under the dripping water between the
shallow terraces and in four days ninety
six hours they are covered with CAL
careous deposit to the depth of one-six-
teenth of an inch. Ornaments made of
twisted wire after q suitable bath in this
marvellous spring emerge like bits Of
branch coral. The amuletic horseshoe is
In great demand. A horseshoe that is
sown in corruption, ragged, rusty, dusty
and with the nails still twisted in It is
raised in interruption, thing Of beauty
and q joy forever. It is in very truth
the materialized ghost of horseshoe.
II you are making the tour Of the park
let me advise You to deposit your souve-
Mrs in the Cleopatra spring on the day of
your arrival, and when you are ready to
depart you will find them whittier than

Trick. Of Old River Captains.

ssThere WAS the sloop Emperor, Capt
Lockwood, running between Troy and
New York, !" said one Of the oldest captains
Of tho Hudson river. ssShe had the repu-
tation Of being the biggest thief on the
river, and that, said the captain laugh
tngly, twas saying good deal In those
days. One night, landing at Albany, the
captain saw barge laden with dead hogs,
and ordered that q line should be attached
to the leg Of onesof them. This done, he
called out: Haul awayr and, Of course,
the hog came plump into the water and
was drawn on board. On another occasion
they were at Esopus. The crew went ashore
and stole o calf, which they killed and
brought aboard. Shortly nfter the captain
saw the owner coming to search for it, ard
he attached it to an anchor and sunk 1t.
The stolen goods being no longer on board,
he allowed the farmer to search thoroughly,
sympathizing with him on his loss, and
finally the poor man went away, saying 1t
was pleasure to meet such honest people.
Immediately upon his departure anchor
and calf were drawn up. The story went
the rounds, and Capt. lockwood 3 honesty
passed into a proverb. "a,
"The Van Rensselaer,, Capt. Harry Yer
planck, had similar reputation. On one
Of their trips down the river they had
been Boosting of their exploits in this di-
rection, when the captain offered a wager
that he would steal the sentinel at West
Point" ...--
"Was the bet takcni"
eyes" replied the captain, who saw
that his auditor was inclined to think that
the veracity of the old river men was on q
par with their honesty; Eyes, and he did
1t. When of West Point he ordered his
gig to be lowered and barrel of flour
placed in her. He sculled for the shore
and was promptly challenged by the SEN
tinel. The captain told him he had bar
rel Of -four for one of the officers Of the
garrison and wanted to land it. The SOL
der consented and the captain proceeded
to make fruitless attempts to get 1t out of
the boat, and ut last succeeded in inducing
the sentinel to help him. The soldier laid
down his musket and jumped into the
boat. The captain, who was powerful
man, at once showed or his boat and
rowed for the sloop. He had succeeded
in capturing his man, who was taken
aboard, and, fearing to return to West
Point, became one of tho crew. The story
went from one end of the river to the
other and made the captain quite hero"
